Event Post 21 - Cliffside Angst

[i_like_red]

*The sun is setting over the island and Juudai can be seen sat on part of a cliff, just down the dirt road from Osiris Red. It's sunset by this time and the sky is a beautiful mix of orange, red and yellow. Juudai watches the calm ocean in front of him for a while before looking down at his deck that he has fanned out in his hands

*Is sat on the edge of the cliff looking at his cards*

[pharaohnapped]

Juudai-kun.

*Is concerned but not going to push the issue.*

*Juudai doesn't look up from his cards but acknowledges that Daitokuji is there*

Hi, sensei.

[pharaohnapped]

Deck building, nya? *Looking at your cards.* No Elixerer, nya?

[i_like_red]

*Juudai goes through the cards, Elixerer is there, it was just hidden behind the other cards*

I'm mostly just thinking, that's all.

[pharaohnapped]

*Will pretend Elixerer doesn't exist, nya.*

Oh?

[i_like_red]

Yeah... just... about how I've felt with dueling recently...

[pharaohnapped]

*Is listening, if you want to talk.*

[i_like_red]

It's just... I guess you could say I've lost the feeling of it being fun. I don't enjoy it as much and...people have been noticing it lately.

[pharaohnapped]

*Daitokuji looks at Juudai, concerned. He remembers their duel and thinks how much the boy has changed.*

When's the last time you duelled for fun?

[i_like_red]

The last time I dueled for fun and actually enjoyed it was before I finally took on Darkness... and even then I think my heart was wavering a little back then too. After Darkness... I don't remember any duel I did after that which I felt was fun.

[pharaohnapped]

It's because you've fought with the fate of the world on your shoulders. I can't tell you to relax - only you can do that, Juudai-kun.

[i_like_red]

*Juudai nods, he knows he's right. He's just not sure how he can relax and get the feeling back*

[pharaohnapped]

Needs cake, nya.

Chocolate cake, with sprinkles, nya.

[i_like_red]

*Juudai laughs*

You can never go wrong with cake.
